Andy Kwon

Biography

Andy Kwon comes to Memphis after spending last season at UCLA as the offensive line coach Kwon’s offensive line unit helped UCLA rush for 150-plus yards in six contests and twice for over 200 yards against Penn State (269) and Michigan State (238) in 2025. In total, UCLA averaged 319.9 yards of total offense (180.3 passing, 139.7 rushing). The Bruins’ O-Line was anchored by consistent play from redshirt senior Garrett DiGiorgio, who started at three different positions, and redshirt freshman left guard Eugene Brooks. Kwon arrived at UCLA after leading the offensive line unit for three seasons at Arkansas State, where he guided a pair of Red Wolves to All-Sun Belt Conference honors in each of his past two years with the program. Center Jacob Bayer was named to the first team in 2023 and the second team, in 2024 in addition to being graded as a top-10 center in FBS both seasons according to rankings by Pro Football Focus. Linemen Mekhi Butler and Makilan Thomas each earned second-team acclaim in 2024 and 2023, respectively. Jalen Cunningham (2024) and Jordan Rhodes (2023) were signed by the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs and New Orleans Saints, respectively, as undrafted free agents. The Red Wolves have averaged more than 150 rushing yards per game across each of the past two seasons with Kwon on staff. In Kwon’s second year working with the offensive line in 2023, Arkansas State’s rushing attack more than doubled its output from the previous season, jumping from 88.2 yards per game
